Nε-Boc-L-lysine amide hydrochloride

Schiff condensation of 2,6-diformyl 4-methylphenol with semicarbazide hydrochloride in 1:2 molar ratio produces the bis(semicarbazone) ligand, herein called H3L. A comprehensive spectroscopic analysis of the compound was performed by 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR and electronic spectroscopies. Assignments to the UV-vis spectrum of H3L were supported by semi-empirical quantum mechanics ZINDO/S calculations. The ligand H3L forms monoclinic crystals in the space group P21/c and its structure is stabilized by classic hydrogen bonds with propanone molecules. It promptly reacts with first row metal ions to produce the following coordination compounds: [Co2(L)(μ-NO3)]·DMF, [Ni2(H2L)(μ-CH3COO)(CH3COO)2]·2H2O, [Cu2(L)(μ-NO3)(H2O)2]·H2O, [Cu2(L)(μ-CH3COO)(H2O)2]·H2O and [Cu2(H2L)(μ-Cl)Cl2]·3H2O, that have different compositions, depending on the degree of deprotonation of the ligand upon coordination. Electronic and EPR spectroscopies as well as effective magnetic moment measurements of the complexes were used in an attempt to better understand their mode of coordination, the microsymmetry around the metal ions and magnetic properties.

Uveitis is an important eye disease that potentially causes loss of sight. Although extensive studies have been conducted on uveitis, the exact pathogenesis remains to be determined. The effects of treatment with natural compounds on an experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) rat model were examined in the present study. A total of 25 rats were divided into 5 groups: Alkaloids (n=5), saponins (n=5), flavonoids (n=5), phenols (n=5), and the normal saline group (n=5). The rats in each group were treated with an intraperitoneal injection of proper alkaloids (berberine hydrochloride), saponins (steroidal saponins), flavonoids (baicalein), or phenols (chlorogenic acid) or physiological saline, respectively. The rats' aqueous humour and crystalline lens was then observed under the slit lamp periodically, looking for signs of inflammation. After 2 weeks, the rats were sacrificed and the degree of pathological changes on their eyeballs under different treatment methods were determined using an optical microscope.

OBJECTIVES: This study was performed to investigate the effects of mucosal acidification on mRNA expression and protein synthesis of cystathionine gamma lyase (CSE), cystathionine beta synthase (CBS), and mucosal release of H2S in gastric mucosa in rats.

In this work, a sensitive, selective, accurate and precise LC-MS/MS method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of an anti-glaucoma ß-blocker, timolol maleate (TIM) with other co-administered anti-glaucoma drugs of different classes, namely; dorzolamide hydrochloride (DOR), brinzolamide (BRZ) and brimonidine tartrate (BRM) in rabbit aqueous humor (AH) using eslicarbazepine as an internal standard (IS). Liquid-liquid extraction was used for the purification and pre-concentration of analytes from rabbit AH matrix. The chromatographic separation was achieved using a mobile phase consisting of 10mM ammonium formate pH=7: methanol: acetonitrile (5: 50: 45, v/v/v) in isocratic mode of elution at a flow rate of 0.8mL/min on an INERTSIL® C18 ODS-3 column (150mm×4.6mm, 3.5μm). The method was operated using electrospray ionization source in the positive ionization mode prior to detection by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) at the following transitions: m/z 317.
